Population growth

National populations grow at a steady rate over time - you'll get a few million people each day.

So, there's no way we can speed it up because of our choices in answering the issues? I mean, if there's an issue about raising the workers' pay, they will probably live longer and healthier and the overall birthrate will rise and the death rate will drop, all causing population figures to rise. Just an idea ...

the larger your nation, the more population you'll get eachtime, you should start noticing it soon :)

I noticed once though i had a nation that was 4 weeks younger than another, but had 10 million more people. One was a dictatorship and the other a free land

Since nations' population growth is somewhere between 4-10 million per day, you will see variences. I have three nations, all created within 20 minutes of each other, which have grown to have close to a 50 million gap between the largest and the smallest.

Trust is, issues choices, government style, number of issues, etc. have no more affect on your population growth than what Zqqrwn the Man From Pluto had for lunch.

Nope, issues don't affect your population. 'Tis all random.

So that also means that issues don't really affect you tax either. Because i noticed that the bottom paragraph(issues paragraph) said my guys were enjoying a tax cut but it was 2% higher than the day before

Yes, they do.
Issues certainly effect your taxes!
